Our Padded Envelopes and Bubble Bags Range
Our range includes not just Jiffy bags and padded envelopes but lots of alternative bubble bags and bubble envelopes. Padded Jiffy bags are still the market leader but the Five Star value range of bubble bags and bubble envelopes offers a cost sensitive alternative to cheap Jiffy bags.
Non-padded protective envelopes like Gusset envelopes are the preferred packaging for thicker documents like manuscripts and books as well as for files and binders. We offer lightweight and heavyweight, kraft paper and waterproof plastic envelopes in C4 and larger envelope sizes as well smaller expanding envelopes for valuable items. For the toughest specifications in non-padded envelopes our Protective envelope page is worth a visit.

The DL envelope and the C5 envelope, (also known as an A5 envelope) have been the most popular commercial envelope sizes for some years. With the introduction of postage fee based on envelope size, the C4 envelope (also know as an A4 envelope) has lost popularity. The C6 envelope (also know as an A6 envelope), the DL envelope and the C5 envelope all qualify for the standard letter tariff band. View the Post Office Pricing in Proportion Tariff for further details.
